Loaded Congo Cookie Bars

Thick, dense and chewy cookie bars fully loaded with two kinds of chocolate chips, candy, coconut flakes and nuts. One of the best things about them is they’re fully customizable in an anything goes kind of way.

If you made them once a week for an entire year they could be different every single time.

I love that.

They are a great way to clean up your pantry especially if you have a lot of odds and ends leftover from Christmas baking.

Into these particular bars is a decadent mix of semi-sweet and white chocolate chips, mini Reese’s pieces, toffee bits, coconut flakes and walnuts. All total – three and a half cups worth. Every single bite sends shock waves straight to your sweet tooth.

In a good way.

The next time you open your cupboard and a bunch of crinkly, partially filled bags of baking goodies jump out don’t shove them back in. Congo bars. Now you know.

Make them.

{‘Cause we could all use a little sugar-coated, candy-laden sweetness in our lives.}
